Giving a rare insight into her personal life, Beyonce, 37, shares never-seen-before photos of her baby bump and twins Rumi and Sir, now aged one, as newborns after their arrival on 13 June 2017.

Opening up on her terrifying labour, Beyonce says: ‘I was supposed to do Coachella the year prior but, I got pregnant unexpectedly. And it ended up being twins which was even more of a surprise to me.

‘My body went through more than I knew it could. I was 218 pounds the day I gave birth. I had an extremely difficult pregnancy, high blood pressure.’

Revealing how one of the twins’ lives was in danger during the delivery, Beyonce continued: ‘I developed toxemia, preeclampsia, and in the room, one of my baby’s heartbeats paused a few times so I had to get an emergency c-section.’
